A new ACDelco battery deserves a shiny new aluminum battery cover.

Nice work, Joe.
Do you have one of these? If you bent that by hand, nice work. Attach file: 2006-06-23 16-01-09_0001.JPG (0.00 KB) |

Always wanted a "brake". These work O.K. for small stuff, otherwise it's clamps and a straight edge.

Joe, that brake I got on sale at HF for $64.00, don't use it much but sure is nice to have.
Up next is getting a cross slide vice for my $65 drill press so I can do halfass milling. If you didn't see it, I got a really good deal on this press. Attach file: 2006-05-21 22-58-57_0001.JPG (0.00 KB) |

Yeah Bill, it's amazing what some homemade jigs and a drill press can accomplish.

Is that aluminum or stainless? Either way, it looks great.

Thanks, It's light gauge hardware store aluminum.
I scratched some lines on it and painted between them to match the rest of the bling. Attach file: P1010001.JPG (115.21 KB) |
